It's a place to get coffee…read more Things start out easy enough, jumping right off 42 or 50, depending on which way you came. You'll see a large parking lot and start to ask yourself what all this church stuff has to do with coffee. Or, for that matter, all the sports and activity resources. Well, they don't. Serenity is a coffee-getting SPACE inside a SPACE that offers all kinds of other things within its SPACE, like a game room, among others. Calling it a "coffee shop" is going too far. But very convenient if you're craving caffeine and don't feel like driving out of your way to reach Ugly Mug or deal with the maddening weekend conditions at Cultivate. (Speaking of which, they use Cultivate beans here. So that's a win.) It's charmless, tucked inside an echo-laden, hall of many shades of gray and not a window in sight. Huge and accommodating, with work tables rocking multiple outlets per person (!), there are good things to say, for sure. Like the barista with the kind demeanor. The churchy feel is pretty overwhelming. If you're not into that or have a problem with it, think again? Idk, it's obvious that the coffee aspect rings as an afterthought, what with everything else going on. If you're looking for a coffee house situation, you won't find it here. But if you want an uber-quiet, enormously spacious, wholly uninteresting place to work, give Serenity Brews a shot. Fair warning, though - the wifi is paltry, so don't bring any demanding work.

There is also an arcade in the building. I was thrilled to be able to get a hot green tea. I ordered a large gunpowder green tea and it came with 2 teabags steeping. I usually follow steeping directions based on the type of tea when I make a cup at home and have had other places steep the tea before I get it but I was okay taking the teabags out after a few minutes. The tea was wonderfully hot and I thoroughly enjoyed the flavor and being able to explore the area with ambitious athletes working on their various disciplines. Plenty of seating and it is a great place to grab a hot drink, a smoothie, or even a pastry after a workout or while waiting for your athlete.

The drink menu is huge, and it's clearly geared more toward flavored latte lovers than coffee purists. If you like creative, dessert-style drinks, you'll have plenty to choose from. Drinks: I ordered a cortado, but it came out more like a breve. Not a big deal, but not quite what I was expecting. I also tried The Alchemist -- an iced latte with white chocolate, English toffee, and raspberry. It was enjoyable, but definitely flavor-forward, with the syrups taking center stage more than the espresso. Food: This is where the place really shines. I ordered the chicken biscuit with Sriracha hot honey, and it was excellent. Crispy chicken, a great biscuit, and the sweet heat from the sauce tied everything together perfectly. Overall: If you're looking for a great breakfast or brunch spot with lots of fun drink options, No Filter is a solid choice. If you're hunting for a specialty coffee experience focused on the coffee itself, this probably isn't the destination -- but the food alone makes it worth the stop.

Overall Rating: 3.5 stars (if Yelp allowed)…read more Service/Ambiance (5 stars): Super friendly people. Love the exposed brick and the decor gives it a nice city vibe in this small town. Food (3 stars): We tried the sticky bun, cinnamon bun with icing and a cheese danish. The icing on the cinnamon roll was the best part. Both buns were more on the dry/bread-like side and I prefer a soft/gooey-middle bun. The cheese danish was our least favorite. I think all of the pastries would have been better warmed, so I would recommend taking your baked goods home and microwaving before eating. Coffee (2.5 stars): As recommended by another Yelper, get coffee at a nearby coffee shop. I had a hot vanilla latte (not good) and my husband had the crème brûlée latte (better, can't really taste the coffee).
